My Project

All of my students love to learn about space. My little learners need books, manipulatives, and classroom materials that will assist them in learning all about our galaxy and how awesome our solar system is. As students learn the big concepts about space, it is important that they have access to books and items that will enhance their learning and make the abstract concepts of space more comprehensible for early learning.

My main goal for this project is to give my students the opportunity to learn about a topic they enjoy and introduce STEM in a fun and engaging way.
